A screen displays how closely two unmanned systems operate near each other while data to the right provides operators information on speed, location, and other air traffic details during a flight test at Naval Air Station Patuxent River. The first-of-its-kind detect and avoidance system called Guardian successfully demonstrated it will make operating unmanned systems alongside manned and other unmanned aircraft safer in increasingly busy airspaces. The system was developed by engineers and test pilots at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division. (U.S. Navy photo)
